Karine Jean-Pierre is counting down the days until she doesn’t have to defend Joe Biden.
She’s going to go down as the worst White House Press Secretary in history.
And Karine Jean-Pierre was fuming after Trump’s new Press Secretary spoke three words.
Trump’s incoming White House Press Secretary rips Biden for hiding
The changing of Presidential administrations is going to bring a dramatic change in how the press is treated.
President Joe Biden’s handlers did everything possible to keep him from interacting with the press to avoid exposing his severe mental decline.
White Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is on the way out after she struggled to give answers and fumbled through her briefing book.
Trump named his campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt to be his White House Press Secretary.
Leavitt will be the youngest Press Secretary in history at 27-years-old.
Jean-Pierre told reporters she had no information for them if Biden would hold the traditional year-end press conference.
Leavitt slammed the President for hiding from the press during an appearance on Fox News.
“He’s been spending a lot of time in Delaware as he did throughout his entire term,” Leavitt said. “We haven’t seen or heard much from the leader of the free world over the past several weeks since the November 5 election. It’s clear that he realizes this is over for him. But I think it’s a dereliction of duty on his behalf. And he owes it to the American people to speak directly to them. But that’s not what we’ve seen from this White House over the past four years.”
Big changes are coming to how the Trump White House handles the press
Leavitt is planning on providing more access and transparency when she assumes the role of White House Press Secretary.
“Talk to reporters who sit inside that briefing room,” Leavitt stated. “They have been incredibly frustrated with the lack of access and transparency from the Biden White House. I can assure them of one thing: their access to the president and the transparency will increase when President Trump is back in the Oval Office.”
Trump, unlike Biden, regularly interacted with the press during his first term.
“We saw that in his first term,” Leavitt continued. “He often brought the press into the Oval Office when he was signing bills. I can expect that is going to continue when he returns in January.”
Even the left-wing reporters who make up the White House press corps have grumbled over how Biden has treated them.
The White House Correspondents’ Association claimed it was “unacceptable” that Biden didn’t give them access to the Quad Summit with leaders from Japan, Australia, and India in September.
“My understanding is that the current posture of the administration is for the press to only see the leaders drive in with no eyes, or cameras on POTUS in this historic moment,” WHCA President Eugene Daniels said at the time. “I can’t remember a time where this president has had a bilateral meeting on US soil and the press and therefore the American people were blocked from seeing it.”
Jean-Pierre defended the decision, claiming the press had plenty of access.
America will have a President who isn’t hiding from the press and the public when Donald Trump takes office.
